Read that freaking article. I doubt a zombie apocalypse would occur any time this year, but maybe some time in the distant future it would.

When zombies come, I'll probably die quick and painfully

All we need are some mad scientists to make the fungi work on human brains.

Goddamnit James that's what I said

Why does everyone want zombies anyway?
I don't fancy seeing the people I love being eaten alive ^.^U

Over-populated earth.

Fungi don't really affect us in any way. Then again, I probably don't know, because it's 3:08 in the morn here.

I know there have been one or two cases of fungi being quite severe (look up "Tree Man"), but apart from that most infections aren't too severe. At least, they can't do this much damage.

I remember reading about this. But if we wanted a zombie apocalypse, we should start in China. Or France.

No,it should be in Lamar Smith's house.
